The République Autonome d’Arcadie has, since the Red Winter of 1974, made an effort to maintain relations primarily within Esvanovia, somewhat scorning extraregional affairs despite its own capabilities in the realm of power projection. Arcadie is one of the few Lorist nations currently in existence, and the ideology has played a large role in their relations.
